# 3D Box Fitter Estimator MCP for AI Agents MCP > 3D Box Fitter Estimator helps you determine if a collection of 3D boxes will fit into a specific container or shipping volume. It uses layered 2D projection math to check if your cargo meets the height and footprint limits of your transport. Instead of guessing at the loading dock, you get a clear "yes" or "no" on whether your items will actually fit together. It's built for logistics pros who need to know the truth about their cargo space before the truck arrives. ## Overview - **Category:** utilities - **Price:** Free - **Endpoint:** https://edge.vinkius.com/vk_preview_i0BtLUh2IkZOjuXtlVXLZLkQMhBEfU36VQYpoCLl/mcp - **Tags:** packing, 3d, dimensions, container, efficiency, algorithm ## Description Shipping and logistics are all about space, and running out of it is a constant headache. If you're trying to figure out how many boxes can fit into a container, you're usually stuck doing mental math or looking at outdated spreadsheets. This MCP changes that by letting your AI agent do the heavy lifting. You can feed it a list of dimensions and a container size, and it'll tell you straight up if the cargo fits. It's built for the reality of warehouse management where every inch matters. Instead of guessing, you get hard numbers on how much space is left and whether your current plan is actually doable. Since Vinkius hosts this, you can plug it right into your existing AI workflow to get instant answers on packing feasibility. It stops the "will it fit?" guessing game before the truck even arrives. You won't have to worry about overfilling a vehicle or leaving too much empty air in your shipping containers. It handles the complex math of layered projections, so you can focus on moving the goods. Whether you're managing a small fleet or a massive distribution center, you get the clarity you need to keep things moving without the friction of manual calculations. ## Tools ### calculate_utilization_efficiency This tool calculates the percentage of space used in a container. It helps you see how much wasted air you're shipping. ### check_single_item_compatibility This tool verifies if one specific item fits in a container. It's the first check you do for oversized freight. ### evaluate_packing_feasibility This tool determines if a list of multiple boxes can fit in a container. It handles the math for 3D packing. ## Prompt Examples **Prompt:** ``` I have a container that's 20x40x8.5. Can I fit a 10x10x10 box in it? ``` **Response:** ``` ### Fit Verification Yes, the item dimensions are within the container limits. | Item Dimensions | Container Limits | Status | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | 10x10x10 | 20x40x8.5 | **Fits** | *Note: Ensure the item is oriented correctly to stay within the 8.5 height limit.* ``` **Prompt:** ``` Calculate the efficiency of putting a 5x5x5 box in a 10x10x10 space. ``` **Response:** ``` ### Volumetric Efficiency The volumetric efficiency for this packing is **12.5%**. * **Used Space:** 125 units * **Total Space:** 1,000 units * **Remaining Space:** 875 units ``` **Prompt:** ``` Check if these 3 boxes (10x10x10, 20x20x20, 5x5x5) fit in a 30x30x30 box. ``` **Response:** ``` ### Multi-Box Feasibility Yes, all boxes fit within the 30x30x30 limits. * **Total Footprint:** OK * **Total Height:** OK * **Status:** Confirmed ``` ## Capabilities ### Verify single item fit Check if one specific object fits within a container's dimensions. ### Calculate total space usage Get the exact percentage of used volume in a shipping container. ### Confirm multi-box feasibility Determine if a list of multiple 3D boxes can fit together in one space. ### Measure leftover volume Find out exactly how much unused space remains after packing. ### Check footprint limits Verify that the base dimensions of cargo won't exceed the floor space. ## Use Cases ### Maximizing truck loads A warehouse manager asks the agent to run `evaluate_packing_feasibility` on a list of 50 boxes to see if they fit in a 40ft container. ### Oversized freight verification A shipping clerk uses `check_single_item_compatibility` to see if a large sofa will fit in a standard delivery van before booking. ### E-commerce shipping optimization An online store owner uses `calculate_utilization_efficiency` to find the smallest box that fits their products with the least wasted space. ### Warehouse storage planning A logistics planner uses the MCP to see how many 3D objects can fit into a specific pallet area for a new storage layout. ## Benefits - Stop guessing on truck space by using `evaluate_packing_feasibility` to confirm multiple items fit at once. - Cut down on wasted shipping costs by checking volume with `calculate_utilization_efficiency`. - Prevent shipping errors by using `check_single_item_compatibility` for oversized freight. - Save hours of manual math by letting your agent handle 2D projection calculations. - Plan warehouse layouts more accurately with precise footprint and height checks. - Speed up quotes for customers by getting instant packing feasibility data. ## How It Works The bottom line is you get instant confirmation on whether your cargo fits without manual calculations. 1. Input the dimensions for your container and the list of box sizes you want to pack. 2. The MCP runs a 2D projection check to see if the footprint and height limits are met. 3. You get a clear confirmation of feasibility along with the total space usage percentage. ## Frequently Asked Questions **Can the 3D Box Fitter Estimator check if my items will fit in a truck?** Yes, it checks if the dimensions of your cargo meet the height and footprint limits of your transport vehicle. **How does the 3D Box Fitter Estimator handle multiple boxes at once?** It processes a list of dimensions to determine if the total collection of items fits within a single container's volume. **Can I use the 3D Box Fitter Estimator for warehouse storage planning?** Absolutely. You can use it to see if new inventory items will fit into your existing racks or storage bins. **Does the 3D Box Fitter Estimator tell me how much empty space is left?** Yes, it provides a specific percentage of used space so you know exactly how much room remains in your container. **Is the 3D Box Fitter Estimator good for e-commerce shipping?** It's perfect for e-commerce. It helps you choose the smallest possible box for your products to minimize shipping costs. **What kind of dimensions does the 3D Box Fitter Estimator need?** You just need to provide the length, width, and height for both the container and the objects you want to pack. **How does the packing algorithm work?** It uses a 2D layered projection approach, sorting boxes by volume and placing them in layers until the container height is reached. **Can I check if a single item fits?** Yes, use the `check_single_item_compatibility` tool for quick verification of one object. **What inputs are required?** You need the container dimensions (length, width, height) and a list of box dimensions.
